For the lazy: "The oldest surviving torrent we have seen is a copy of the Matrix fan film “The Fanimatrix”."

Just because I was curious: Sony comes from sonos, sound in Latin. Nike is the Roman Greek God of victory. Lego is is a Danish abreviation for "play well". Cisco comes from San Fransisco. Adobe is the name of a Creek near the founders house.

Yeah, F1 driver Max Verstappen is in a similar situation. Clearly insanely talented, but probably got there by having a childhood which was pretty fucked up (left at gas station by father in Italy if he lost a karting race, etc.).

Maybe we miss out on a couple of savants without this kind of treatement, but it is a pretty good tradeoff, especially if you think about all the kids that did not make it to the top, and just had a abusive childhood without anything to show for it.

ESA is not an internet provider, and also not a surveillance company? Or at least, not that I know of.

When doing stuff, my grandfather would sometimes say:

"Even small things help", said the fly, and she pissed into the sea.

Always made me laugh.

Nono, the other way round. Visit it with chrome and spoof a firefox user agent, so it looks like you used firefox, while you can still use the website.

It can hide cookie banners for you with the right settings. Since gdpr dictates no choice = no cookies, this should block all tracking stuff.

I don't remember what exactly you need to enable, but you can use DDG to find out.

Honestly, a bit of a mixed bag. The FP4 has some weird software issues sometimes, which you probably won't see at the big name brands: ghost touches, camera crashes (requires a reboot), problems with call quality, etc. I think the pros probably outweigh the cons, but something to keep in mind.

Not sure how big the problems are with custom ROMs. Also, FP5 is coming soon(-ish), so maybe some of the problems will be fixed?

I get cold just thinking about this. Turning off the shower is my least favourite part of showering. Why repeat the experience several times in one session?

It is genuinly a very nice building though. I would love an office there.

There is a cinema inside as well.

Black could have won in the first turn we see, right?

Miracast is basically just wireless HDMI

Docker does not lock you in with the docker hub though. So no hostage taking.

Your definition of vegetable is "cannot be used as base for pizza sauce"? Oddly specific.

I found 2, but I am sure there are more. https://masto.host/ https://toot.io/mastodon_hosting.html

Bullshit. I can use docker without the docker hub very easily. Anyone can host docker images, and docker allows this, no weird hacks needed.

Oops, yup, very true, I always confuse the Greek and Roman gods 😅

Just a warning: this takes pretty much every bad FF trope you can think of and turns it to max. Awful reading.

Christian Horner?

Uhh, yes they do. This does not take much googling to find out. Capitalist companies produce spices in the east too.

Yes

Don't underestimate a pi! If you have a 3 or up, it can easily handle a few more things.
